ScrapMaker

hey FyreLance...

are those custom rear plastic panels, or what??

I've never seen those before, and I'd love to replace mine... make them higher so I can put more equipment in there.

Is there a special way to install the rear subs? Like do they have to face a certain direction? I don't want to blow my window I have a box with spots for 3 12" subs, but it's flat. Is that good or what?

ScrapMaker

you won't break your window... the hatch will just vibrate a lot of its not tight.

you will problably never notice the difference if you had the subs slightly facing forwards or just firing straight up... bass is not really that directional... you're probably fine on both issues.

curtis84ta

keep your windows open...safe bet they won't break then if your really nervous about it...open windows...less pressure...dispursed out the window etc....

ScrapMaker

bah if I keep my windows down and play my subs loud,
1) I'll go deaf
2) I'll hear so many damned vibrations, that I'd wish I was deaf

Demon355

iTrader: (1)

LOL yea my buds system in his car if you open the windows with the stereo really loud...you'll blow your ear drums. Alright cool man, thanks for the info!

ScrapMaker

heh, are you saying that if you open the windows your eardrums will blow... or that they will blow no matter what?

FyreLance

Nope, those are the stock plastic panels..................... in my fourth-gen. Shhhh!

Demon355

iTrader: (1)

Well with the windows closed or open, my nose hair gets tickled...lol so you can only guess. I'm the only one out of my friends without a stereo system in the car. Meh...I'm about go, not show

ScrapMaker

I got v6... all you can do is make it look nice and have a nice stereo

curtis84ta

or put in a v8 i swaped my 305 to a 350 just this past aug...prob one of the best things ever.

ScrapMaker

im gonna probably buy a GTA 350... I would never buy another car without at least a 5.7... the 305s are worthless in their stock form... 160hp?

if that was a thirden that would be in my top 3. looks very clean.

FyreLance

Coming from you that's quite a compliment. Thanks!

FyreLance

... double post?

ScrapMaker

those ARE aftermarket panels, right? even though its a fourth gen, I just don't remember it looking so, "squarey"... which goes so damn well with that box... I wanna steal your car now. Better get an alarm

Kandied91z

iTrader: (7)

i have no idea what happned, they are even different times???

hmm

ScrapMaker

the sites been going really slow... maybe your browser posted, and it didn't know, and then it retried after a few minutes

FyreLance

Nope, they are stock, I promise. The box just really flows well with it.

I've never had someone threaten to steal my car before... I'm flattered, lol

FyreLance

Best part about the box is that it still works with my t-tops. http://www.subthump.com/images/camaro/ttop/ttop2.jpg (not my car)

Demon355

iTrader: (1)

Yea thats amazingly clean looking. Nice!

Saigon_Bob

iTrader: (2)

lol ill help you

ScrapMaker

Let's surround him... I'll start from Texas, and you from Florida, he'll have no where to go... probably corner him in Michigan or Maine... I know he's not brave enough to Canada, not with them frenchies up there... haha watch out FyreLance!!

also... you put something between your panels when you store them, right?

I just strap mine in directly above the subs, and they sound great.

Saigon_Bob

iTrader: (2)

the t-tops? for now i put em in teh back seat but when i make my new box for teh storage well ill use the bag and strap em to the rear hump area

FyreLance

When I first got the box I would put a towel between the t-tops, but over time I realized the tops barely moved anyway and now I don't even bother. You just have to be careful placing and removing them.

ScrapMaker

one time on the way to the coast, I removed them while driving... with two passengers, before my subwoofer... I just swivled them enough to fit them inside, and handed them to the backseat guy... unfortunately that scratched the crappy tint on the inside, plus the t-top tint got scratched...

I have already replaced all my car window tint, next stop is the t-tops...

blue82transam

I have in my lovely red T/A the following:

*Kenwood Excelon KDC-X859 (i'm sure that is the #)
will make sure when my baby gets back from the repair shop
*Infinity Kappa 4x6 Plate's up front
*JL Audio 6x9's at the moment, switching to Infinity Kappa 6x9's soon!
*1 JL Audio 10w6
*JL Audio 250/1 Amp

I'll take pictures as soon as I get it back from the body shop and show off my great sounding and newly painted Trans Am!!!

ScrapMaker

sounds like you have a sweet setup dude, and you will really enjoy those infiniti 6x9's... they are nice and punchy, but lack overall in bass.. in most cars, but luckily you have assubwoofer so you can just cut out the bass on the kappas and keep on truckin.

get an amp for all your kappas and you're audio experience will change forever.

and me and saigon may have to swing by your house and "check out" your excelon 859... those things rock...

enjoy it bro, while you can!

if I had one of those, I'd pay a ninja to sleep in my car at night, just in case.

blue82transam

U'll love this Scrap.. got the Kenwood H/U off ebay for $180 from some dude who totalled his car or something

you are right.. it looks better than i thought it would in that car... thank *** I didn't put it in my wifes f-150 like originally planned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ScrapMaker

do you know what year the model is?

my bro has an '03 f-150 STX with the excelon in it... it rocks but its features lacked when compared to the kdc mp922... which was an '04 model... if you have an '04 excelon you are in for a treat! -- well any year is a treat, but you know what I'm getting at...

I love the excelons, but best buy can't get them, so I had to order the kick *** pioneer I have... I love the 13band graphic eq, and the auto sound tuning microphone... plus the speed-sensitive sound increments... some of the things kenwood lacks....

for what you paid, you definitely got a good deal, but I don't know if I could ever get a headunit off ebay, just because they are so common to have failures and such.... good luck on that, and your kappas...

Red1991TransAm

I think the Kenwood I have is an '03 actually. I have had it for at least a year and the guy that had it before me had had it in his car for a while. This thing is still great though. I love it. Doesn't sound like it has quite as many options.. but still great.

For some reason I have always been reluctant to buy Pioneer. I think its because they sold there stuff at WalMart. I do hear, though, that they have come on strong and make great headunits.

I usually always check ebay when I am going to buy something. Only twice out of more than 100 transactions have I had a problem. Thats less than 2% of the time.. So far I'll keep taking my chances. That includes buying the Trans Am that I now drive

ScrapMaker

ebay is nice

autotrader is for cars!

crazycamaro83

Red1991TransAm

LOL -- hey... got my car and a road trip back home.. all because of ebay!

ScrapMaker

LIGHTNING AUDIO???

i think the only thing they make worth having is their capacitors, because they are cheap, and rating better than many competitors... even though I don't know if they really ARE better...

crazycamaro83

yeah i couldnt agree more i only have it in my car cause it was lying around. im building a 3 10in sub box for the back. i have 3 alpine type r 10in subs and a mtx thunder amp with a fosgate cap. so when its all done ill swap that in. but yeah for sure lightning audion isnt worth nothing.

ScrapMaker

mmm alpine type R's... sound similar to kappa perfects if you ask me, just more $$

definitely nice setup though

snflupigus

my old system...




sub was mounted as low as possible - this produced i think what was something like a loudspeaker effect. The carpet over the box ran the length of the interior to the bottom of the back seats so it lookd completely factory. It sounded amazing compared to other systems in fbodies I've heard. People would say, THATS 1 12?!

I'm guessing low 130's.... SUPER CLEAN and deep 1 cubic foot box was originally designed for an infinity perfect but my parents sold the shop instead of placing the infinity minimum order.

ppi2400 amp bridged to 1 ohm - PPI said it would be stable, it was for over 3 years... love ppi

dvc dei studio sub. (same as their comp subs just rated differently - for sound qual).

I had infinity 3 ways in the side pillars and ppi plates up front that were a bit tinny for my taste. Kameleon deck was used because it was the only one with rca in's at the time.
